May Sleevers...where are you?



Recommended Posts

I'm scheduled for VSG on May 4th. I'm still kind of in shock; after preparing for this for 6 months for insurance purposes, I can't believe I've made it to the end and that my surgery day is a matter of weeks away. Starting the 2 week liquid diet on 4/21 - kind of nervous! But all in all I am glad that I stuck to my guns and am going to be living a healthier life soon! Best of Luck to my fellow May Sleevers!!

We have the same date...Congrats

I will be getting surgery on May 11th. I get pretty excited every time I look at my fat belly and think about it shrinking. I have lost a huge amount of weight in the past and kind of know what to expect with baggy skin, Hair loss, etc. but I gained it back and am looking forward to a more permanent solution.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
